Doves Tour North America This Spring

Hot on the release of their third full-length album, Manchester trio, Doves, will make the jump across the Atlantic to play a tour of North America this spring. They'll start things off by hitting Coachella at the end of April, and from there the band will head up the West Coast into Canada, and then move back eastwards.

Doves will visit a total of 16 cities in support of "Some Cities", two of which will be on Canadian soil. The three-piece will be playing in both Vancouver and Toronto on the month-long jaunt. Accompanying Doves as they make their way around the continent is New York alt-rock band Mercury Rev.

"Some Cities", which is the follow-up to 2002's "The Last Broadcast", was just released on March 1st in North America. The first single lifted from the disc is called "Black and White Town" and can currently be heard playing on radio around the globe. To listen to it, and in fact all the tracks on "Some Cities" go to the band's site at www.doves.net.
